HERZOG MAKES GOOD OFFER
AND SETTLES STRIKE
The Herzog strike was settled yes
terday as quickly as it was started.
Just when the weight of organized
labor was beginning to be felt, Her
zog came across with a good offer
and the girls accepted.
This morning the young strikers
went back to work under different
conditions from those which they re
fused to endure last week.
A 10 per cent increase for all gar
ment workers who are making less
than $8.50 a week with a reduction
of the working week from 54 to 50
hours; installation of grievance and
wage committees to settle future dis
putes; agreement to a preferential
union shop and the abolition of the
fining system were the terms accept
ed by the strikers.
The unrest started by the strike at
Herzogs, however, has not been set
tled. Last night 2,000 ladies' wear
workers met at the West Side Audi
torium and formed plans to ask for
higher salaries and better conditions
from all Chicago garment manufac
turers. The absence of International Pres
ident Schlessinger of the ladies' gar
ment makers' union prevented defi
nite action last night He was call
ed to New York by the threatened

heads of the Federation of Labor,

garment unions over the advisability
of making demands on garment
